If you're a firm believer in counting stats for players to be HOFers, that would eliminate almost every active starting pitcher.

Im a firm believer in counting stats with position players. Pitchers are a little different.


However, the last 5 pitchers into the Hall

Randy Johnson- 300wins and 3000K
Pedro- 3000K
Smoltz- 3000K
Tom Glavine- 300wins
Maddux- both


Would Kershaw need to hit counting stats? Prob not. He has 3 Cys and an MVP.

I could be missing someone but all the other active starting pitchers have a long way to go to sniff the HOF. Counting stats arent eliminating them, they are eliminating themselves at this point.
